check out this journey for god's sake take your own pics and description

I don't see a problem. It's not an outrageous asking price; at $600, it was way undervalued IMO.

Pictures aren't an issue for me. But calling it a "Journey Escape" is; that's the name of the Atari 2600 game, not the UR. ;)
 
wtf its mine what the big deal

not changing the description is wrong.......hes a lazy lier

whats wrong with all you people I bought it, paid for it, and am leaven it in ohio hoping to sell it before putting 350 into shipping it and another 100 fixing it and then selling it for 1600
so buy it. its a good buy people do it with cars,land,etc etc and it ok but do it with a arcade game and it is not. i did it just knowing this would happen and i was correct as for pics and a discription i know nothen about the game at all exept what he wrote and the pics so from 800 miles away I would think he knows more then I do so lets make this thread into a diff tread lets see who thinks what of what i have done here it will be funny to see what everyone has to say about it as im sure most people who buy and sell have done it a time or 2x I have bought 100"s of games and sold 1/2 off dozens of times just to cut my investment its called flipping

gary

WOW that is the longest sentence in the world..
 
I'm confused - does the original owner still have posession of the machine? Did you ask him to hold it until you resell to someone else for more money?
 
I'm surprised the original seller is willing to put up with that. I wouldn't warehouse something I sold while the buyer shops around to sell it for $800 more. I'd just cancel the sale one the grounds that the buyer did not pick up, and sell it to someone who actually wanted it.

That doesn't even get into the can of worms if the game get shipped to the next guy, and there is a problem. Who does that buyer resolve it with? The reseller even used the original owner's text "The last time I turned it on and played it..." which in fact is a lie, as the new seller has never even seen the machine in person.
 
as for pics and a discription i know nothen about the game at all exept what he wrote and the pics so from 800 miles away

So you're willing to sell a game to someone without ever having seen it yourself, and taking someone else's word on its condition?

Flipping's a part of any hobby, but there's no way I could sell something to someone that I couldn't vouch for.
 
that wouldnt be right would it

so if you sold me a game and i emailed you after i paid you and said sir would you have a problem keeping the game for a couple of weeks why i try and sell it to someone else you would cancel the sale and refund me my money, is that what your saying ? thats wrong because I bought and paid for it and asked you if it would be ok and you said sure i dont care im in no hurry why would the party that sold the game care as long as they got what they were asking for the game ?a person who would do what you said is a greedy no go dirt bag
 
the game is cheaper if it stays in ohio

If the game gets shipped to me it is 350.00 more and if I fix it then add another 200 or so to the price so the deal on the game is to buy it where it sits I thought I was doing a good thing by doing this Im going to make 400.00 either way whether I ship it here or ship it from his place.
 
If the original owner is aware of this and is ok with it, so be it. If you just bought it knowing it is worth more and using the seller as storage then that is wrong.
 
there you go

I agree everyone acts like i hit the buy it now button emailed the guy and said hey i will pay you in a couple weeks is that ok well that is not what happened I payed the guy and then asked him if it was ok to leave the game there for a couple weeks and his answer was
and i quote Gary, Not a problem at all. I am in no hurry to get it out of here, so it
will be ready when you are. Thanks again, Bob

so what ya think of those apples all ya haters out there kiss my ass
 
This is what gives me douche chills:

"The last time I turned it on and played it, it played perfectly. I recently turned it on and it gave me the screen that you see pictured. I can only assume that it needs a new board. "

You havent seen or touched the game.
 
what........no "copy" and "paste" in the forum?just ebay....?......im sure if you searched the forum long enough you could just copy and paste replys......that would save you from having to write them yourself right?
 
So someone bought it for $600 and now is trying to flip it for $1400 not working? Lol..that's crazy, good on that :)
 
Wonder how many have now emailed the guy telling Him Hes being taken advantage of.
